Title: Transcribe and translate French document
Post by: keldon on Friday 03 February 23 09:32 GMT (UK)
Could a kind soul transcribe and translate this for me. Three parts. I've put it through Google translate but it doesn't read correctly. It relates to the execution of Manon Jeanne, Baronne de Bois de Vauban.
It's the best quality image I can provide.
Extract 1.

Something does not seem right though , the public prosecutor in 1793 was Fouquier Tinville and it is not his signature under Accusateur public.

for example
